General Cultivation Q&A

As the topic title implies I am doing research for my first grow. As one would expect, as a beginner, I know very little about the marijuana plant. But of course I have hundreds of questions. I am an experienced groundskeeper and a fast learner, though so I feel fully confident in being able to learn a new trade. Ok, so my grow space is going to have to be very very small. I'm not looking to sell or distribute anything either, this is just for myself and maybe a friend or two. I heard of ppl growing their pot in computer cases...given my space limitations and other surrounding factors I would like to do that too. 1. How do pgr's (plant growth regulators) effect marij…

My 3 plants are all hermies! I noticed some balls a week ago but there was about 99% fem flowers so i thought they were ok (never grown before). I went away for 5 days and when i got back i noticed some have already released pollen. I broke some others open and there was yellowish powder inside so im pretty sure they are hermies, What should i do? I smoked some of the fem bud and am on my hole so i dont feel like chopping them. They still have 4 weeks to go. All are hermy so i guess my clones will be too?

am haveing humidity problems at night . humidity is going up to 65%--75% at night but it is 50% during the day have just installed an ac to help (may fix but not sure) also have two fans moveing air around in room PLEASE HELP AS I DONT WANT MOLD ON MY BUDS (BLOODY TROPICS)

Information about plant growth regulators http://chemicalland21.com/lifescience/agro/PACLOBUTRAZOL.htm I have used paclobutrazol in a hydro product I purchased, budking or budwise or something, to reduce length between internode and promote lateral growth, budding sites ect. it was a foilar spray with two aplications from memory. Had too lower nute strength …

Duno if this has been posted b4, could come in handy for some people. note, chart is for soil, hydro is slightly different. http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa243/kevin355_2007/pH.jpg

While going through some of my gear, I came across 2 small white 60mil bottles labelled: "SUPER BLOOM" I recall getting them sent over from a hydro. shop in Sydney about 3 years ago. Has anyone heard of it or used it. The label goes on to say: QUOTE: SUPER BLOOM Flower Promotant Directions for use Super Bloom is a foliar spary. Mix 5 mil into 1 litre of water and spray the plants when they are at least 15cm high. Allow 14 days before a second spray. That is all it says. I can't remember whether I used it or not. If anyone has any info. about it, please let me know. I don't want to spray my lovely ladies if it is going to screw them up. Thanks guys. P.S. My…

G'day fellow stoners and growers. A mate snuck back some dutch seeds for me a few years ago, Big bud, jack herer, silver pearl ect. and I have had great success with them. Last year though I noticed a weird silvery necrosis of my shade leaves, but only on one side and alternating! e.g internode 3,5,7. I ended up chucking these mutants and a few hermies (as you do) so I don't know if I could have bloomed these things and if the flowering growth would have been affected. I assumed the problem was genetic NOT enviromental as other plants were healthy as and I know a thing or two about indoor cultivation, maybe those seeds are just too damn old. Thoughts anyone?

Hey ppl... I got a Question, i wanna go away for new years for 5-7 days and leave my plant without monitoring... what should i do before i leave to ensure my plant is still alive upon my return??? IE: my 3 plants are in a 1,4m X 1,1m box made of chipboard with a 100mm extractor fan and a 600w sodium lite + ballast (placed in a very moist basement below a restaurant) the floors are always moist and the area is generally cold and damp & there are no lights or general ventilation, but the room is pretty big [say 8m x 8m] is this good???
